mary engelbreit's "sweet treat" blackberry cobbler
While looking for a good cobbler recipe for the wild blackberries I picked, I ran across this recipe in an old Mary Engelbreit "Sweet Treats" Dessert Cookbook (from the 80's) that I had in my cookbook collection. The added heavy cream makes the biscuit topping rich and scrumptious!

How To Make mary engelbreit's "sweet treat" blackberry cobbler
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 375.
-
Step 2Make the biscuit topping. In a large bowl, toss together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using your fingers, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Step 3Add the cream to the crumbs, mixing with a fork until a soft batter forms. Set the topping aside.
-
Step 4Make the blackberry filling. In a large bowl, toss together the blackberries, sugar, flour, and allspice.
-
Step 5Spoon the filling into an ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan. Using a large spoon, drop mounds of the biscuit topping on the blackberry filling (the batter will spread as it cooks).
-
Step 6Bake the cobbler for 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving.
-
Step 7Serve warm or at room temperature. Top with vanilla ice cream (optional).
